    How corrupt ordinary people are.

    Everyone is always ready to flair up at the government, when these are only ephemeral bodies of individuals.

    Humans are corruptible with treacherous hearts.

    The government couldn’t really do enough to protect us from each other, yet through the veil of modern civility we have little foreboding of one and other and such a suspicion for the body of governance made in our own image.
